Abstract
Abstract The present invention provides a multistep electronic circuit device comprising a plurality of parts and elements mechanically or electrically bonded in sequence to each other and to a substrate with a plurality of solders, which comprises as the parts and elements the substrate, input and output pins and LSI chips, and optionally packages and a cooler bonded through multistep bonding, the bondings of the parts and elements including at least one CCB bonding and at least one sealing, the solders each having a lower melting point than the heatproof temperature of the part or element to be bonded with the solder, and one of the solders having a melting point of at least 10 degrees C. lower than that of the other solder used at the bonding step immediately before. The solders used are selected from Au10-15wt%Ge alloy (melting point: 356 degrees-450 degrees C.), Pb1-5wt%Sn alloy (melting point: 314 degrees-325 degrees C.), Pb10-13wt%Sn alloy (melting point: 270 degrees-300 degrees C.), Au20wt%Sn alloy (melting point: 280 degrees C.), Sn3-6wt%Sb alloy (melting point: 232 degrees-243 degrees C.), Sn2-8wt%Ag alloy (melting point: 221 degrees-235 degrees C.), Sn35-55wt%Pb alloy (melting point: 183 degrees -200 degrees C.) and Sn45wt%Pb18wt%Bi (melting point: 135 degrees-160 degrees C.).
